About this property

Cozy Pet Friendly Cottage, 2 story Deep Water Dock - bring your boat!

Quiet family & dog friendly home on Lake Hartwell with a large deck and two level boat dock. Very deep water (23 feet at dock when lake is full) means not worrying about summertime water drops and no touching your feet on the bottom when swimming and no muddy water! Two jet ski ports for keeping your water craft out of water and secure during your stay. Bring your boat too, there is plenty of room to tie up to the dock! There is a small boat ramp that is located in same cove and very easy to get to (Port Bass boat ramp). The spacious upper dock is furnished with cushioned furniture and sunshade. Kayaks are also available to be used to explore our large and quiet cove. The large 20'x30' deck overlooks the lake while keeping dogs and small children secure with gates and fencing. Multiple tables with sunshades, grill, and mosquito lamps will keep you comfortable while grilling out lunch or dinner. Full size washer and dryer along with two full size refrigerators. In addition the house is equipped with central air and smart TV. Master bedroom has a queen size bed, 2nd bedroom has two sets of twin bunk beds, and living room has a queen size pull out sofa bed. Concrete parking area is 35'x50' so there is room for your vehicle and trailer. Fast fiber WiFi included. There are multiple State and Federal parks in the area with hiking and biking trails. We are only 30 minutes to Clemson University and one hour to University of Georgia.

We are about a 10 minute boat ride to Harbor Light Marina where there are boat rentals available. There is also a lakeside restaurant, Tilly's, there at the marina that we love to take a quick boat ride for a bite to eat and a cold beer. Level 2 car charger available.

Our family looks forward to sharing the property we love with you!

What we provide:
- Plenty of bath towels and lake towels
- sheets and blankets
- paper towels
- toilet paper
- trash bags
- dish soap
- hand soap
- small sample sizes of soap, shampoo, conditioner, body lotion (if you have a large family or are staying a week you may want to pack some extra)

Great summer vacation house

This was a great place, it was just as described. We would definitely recommend. My two teenage boys loved jumping and swimming from the dock. The water was very clean and deep off the dock.

Great stay

we had a great Stay at this property. We were able to bring our boat and put it in just down the street from the house. The dock is great and is equipped with lifejackets for humans and dogs of all sizes. The house is not huge, but has a large back deck that is perfect for spending time with family away from the water. There were two fridges that made it easy to shop and prepare meals each day and there were basic essentials in the spice cabinet and fridge that were available to to use. The have everything you need to cook and prep there. Our hosts were very communicative and available if we had any questions. Would definitely come back!

Great Lake getaway

Owners were great and communicated with us and check to make sure our stay was perfect. The dock is huge with the upper deck and has very deep water at it. House has a great AC and the water pressure in the shower is to die for. Great place for a small family.

Great view of the lake

Everything was great! The cottage was perfect for our family of 4 and the dog :) The view is so pretty and we loved being able to jump in the lake and to use the floats at the house to relax on the water. It was also so nice that there were a few great restaurants just a few minutes from the property. We also went to a game at Clemson, it was a 30-35 min easy, stress free drive. Our dog loved the cottage too. The surmise was amazing from the swing on the dock!! TY!

Lake vacation

We had a great week at the beautiful lake! Loved the dock, the deck, and the great AC inside! The only thing I missed was a dishwasher, but it was a nice big sink to wash our dishes in. It didn’t limit our fun at all. It was one of the better equipped kitchens we’ve had in rentals as well. The two refrigerators came in super handy, used one for drinks and one for food. The floors are super pet friendly as well. We would definitely stay again!

Family vacation

We all had a wonderful time. The house was perfect for us. It had all we need it. The dock was secluded and away from the main channel. Kids enjoyed the kayaks and fishing. We caught lots of fishes. Jumping out of the dock second floor was awesome as well. We will rerun next year. Also, it was nice to include our dog in this vacation.

About the host

Myself, my wife and our 16 year old daughter LOVE spending weekends on Lake Hartwell at Boomerang Cottage when we aren't sharing it with others.

Why they chose this property

The lake views are gorgeous from the back deck and especially from the top level of the double decker dock! The dock is perfectly situated in a beautiful deep water cove with little boat traffic and no docks across the way.

What makes this property unique

Very deep water two story dock.
